Novak Djokovic has spoken out against what he perceives as favoritism in the handling of Jannik Sinner’s three-month doping ban, with many players feeling that the process was unfair. Sinner reached a settlement with Wada over two positive drug tests, claiming contamination by his physio, which was accepted by Wada. Djokovic, among other players, expressed concerns about inconsistencies in doping cases, citing examples such as Simona Halep and Tara Moore. Sinner’s suspension allows him to compete in the French Open, leading to accusations of convenient timing. British players Liam Broady and Jack Draper also weighed in on the matter, with Draper emphasizing the need for accountability in what athletes put in their bodies. The issue has brought attention to the need for a more effective anti-doping system in tennis, and calls for greater consistency in handling doping cases. There is hope that Sinner’s case will lead to improvements in how players are treated and serve as a precedent for future cases.
